Introduction to Anti-Racism in Charities

21–22 May 2024

Helping charity leaders work towards race equity in their organisations.

This online course is a perfect introduction for senior leaders and trustees to learn and plan how to work towards race equity in their organisation’s culture, practice and services. 
 
Over two mornings, you will learn to:
  • Understand key race equity concepts and terminology
  • Understand the context and need for this work within our sector
  • Assess where your organisation is on its journey towards race equity,
  • Explore creating a compelling race equity vision
  • Begin to set tangible goals. 
The tools used in this programme will be shared so that you can use them with your own boards and teams to engage them in this shared journey towards race equity.
 
This course will take place online via Zoom.
 
A £40 discount is available to Governance & Leadership subscribers.
